(Gelato is not ice cream, it's better)
We aren't interested in the ordinary,
we are crafters of the extraordinary.
We are a Dubai born experimental gelato concept that aims to create extraordinary culinary experiences.
Each product is handmade by us (Ilaria & James) in small batches, using our own recipes.
We use only the finest quality ingredients to elevate our gelato flavors to another level.
You will taste the difference.
We do not use artificial flavors, colorants, premixes or chemical additives.
Flavors that'll excite.
Inspired by our adventures
Bella Tahini Bonbons: original
Suitable for: Vegans. Contains nuts.
Our own bonbon invention, when Italian gelato meets Arabic fusion. Syrian tahini and house-made rahash gelato with stirred in flakes of premium Belgian milk chocolate flakes and chunks of rahash. All coated in our secret Belgian milk chocolate blend and topped off with a sprinkle of crumbled rahash. Every bite will leave you wanting more.
Served in our signature 4-piece box.
You think you know pistachio?
Suitable for: Vegans. Contains nuts.
Did you know, theres good pistachio, and theres gooooood pistachio? We make our gelato with 100% pure Bronte pistachios and keep it vegan so that you really get the flavor in all its glory.
This. Will. Revolutionize. Your. World.
Available in 4 portions/500ml.
Nuts for Hazel
Suitable for: Vegetarians. Contains nuts.
Not all nuts are created equal. We strictly use roasted Hazelnuts from Piedmont (only the best) to make our hazelnut gelato. No frills, no distractions, just a creamy, roasted masterpiece.
There are plenty of squirrels out there that'll agree with us.
Comes in 4 portions/500ml.
Italian Summer
Vegan / Dairy-free / Gluten-free
Ilaria’s favorite, the zestiness of the lime, the sweetness of the strawberries, all tied together by the aroma of basil.
This sorbetto captures the essence of a sea breeze on a warm Italian beach. A scoop of pure sunshine.
Available in 4-servings container / 500ml.
Karak
Suitable for: Vegetarians
The UAE's unofficial national drink, reimagined. Using the traditional Emirati recipe (after lengthy discussions and heated arguments) we’ve captured the warmth of cardamom, saffron, and other spices and fused them into a cool, creamy gelato.
You may want to sit down for this one.
Available in 4-servings container / 500ml.
What's Laban Up!
Suitable for: Vegetarians
If you grew up here, you know. We took the iconic duo of Laban Up and Chips Oman and turned it into a gelato. It sounds wild, but the creamy tang and savory crunch is a nostalgia trip you have to taste to believe.
IYKYK
Comes in a 4 serving box / 500ml and a bag of chips Oman for you to sprinkle on top.
Who are we?
First and foremost, we are life enthusiasts. We love experiencing things. Be it delicious food, exciting adventures, traveling, animals, you name it.
This brings us to our love and excitement gelato (not ice cream). Much to our surprise, gelato in Dubai is at best, underwhelming.
We've tested many, many spots and none of them got us excited or longing to eat it again.
This is where we come in. Using our life experience, the insights of 100s of testers and friends, we came up with our collection of gelatos. We strongly believe that quality is everything. Using the best ingredients really helps create amazing flavors. We refuse to use any kind of fake flavors, chemicals, premixes and or food coloring. So when you pick Gelatocraft, you know you're picking the best quality out there. Guaranteed.
Ilaria: The Italian Mastermind
Born and raised in north of Italy, Ilaria was raised on gelato. As a standard sweet treat for Italians, she has, like all Italians, a very very strong opinion on how it should be. With her culinary expertise, and super fine-tuned taste pallet, she is the mastermind behind our flavor profiles.
Her taste buds lean more towards the savoury side, and when it's sweet, it's fruity, refreshing and acidic that she craves. Or chocolate.
James: The food lover.
Born in the Netherlands, but raised all over the world. James is first and foremost a food lover. His main incentive to travel, is to try new flavors wherever he goes. With a very adventurous taste pallet, and less cultural restrictions (unlike Ilaria), he dares to try flavor combinations that might otherwise be questionable. The sweet tooth behind the operation, James is not only a chocolatier and gelato chef, but the branding wizard that designed all the packaging. Pretty cool yeah?
